The draw of luck put U23 Vietnam in the same group with U23 Guam, U23 Singapore and U23 Yemen. Overall, Group C is considered not too difficult for U23 Vietnam. In fact, this is an opportunity for Coach Troussier and his team to gain impressive victories to regain the trust of fans.
U23 Guam and U23 Yemen are unknowns. However, the youth teams of these two countries have not left much of a mark in the continental arena. U23 Singapore is a familiar opponent to U23 Vietnam. At the 32nd SEA Games, the U22 Vietnam team led by coach Troussier did not have too much difficulty overcoming the team from the lion island.
U23 Vietnam fell into an easy group.
Meanwhile, other host teams in Southeast Asia are also in groups that are considered to be of equal strength. U23 Thailand is in the same group with U23 Bangladesh, U23 Philippines and U23 Malaysia. U23 Indonesia is in a group with 3 teams, their opponents are U23 Taiwan (China) and U23 Turkmenistan.
The core of the U23 Vietnam squad is the players who just participated in the 32nd SEA Games. However, based on the actual performance of the players in the V-League and the 2023 First Division, Coach Troussier can make personnel adjustments. Tuan Tai, Van Tung, Van Chuan, Thai Son, Ngoc Thang, Duc Phu, Thanh Nhan, ... are among the players who are sure to be named.
Some other players in Coach Troussier's sights such as Vo Nguyen Hoang (PVF-CAND), Ho Khac Luong (Song Lam Nghe An), Nguyen Dinh Huyen, Doan Ngoc Ha (Thanh Hoa Club), Nguyen Duc Anh ( Hanoi FC),... will also have the opportunity to show themselves.
The 2024 AFC U23 Championship qualifiers will feature 43 teams divided into 10 groups of four and one group of three, and are scheduled to take place in early September 2023. The teams will compete in a round-robin format, with each group being held in a different country.
